Coach Jesse Eisner will be leading a Boulevard Road Race pre-ride with support January 12th.
The support will include a follow vehicle with power-bar nutrition and electrolyte drinks provided. We will do two laps of the course the 2nd lap being at a faster pace.
You can ride two laps of the course with follow vehicle and get the pro treatment; Have the team car carry your spare wheels, jackets, and pass you bottles and food. Change wheels quickly after a flat and rejoin the group.
There will be a bail out point at start of 2nd lap.
If this is your first time racing the Boulevard RR, come ride with us! Get to know the course and select appropriate cold weather gear and equipment.
Coach Eisner has ridden and raced the course multiple times and can give tips on the course, conditions, and tactics.
Boulevard RR is far from an office park criterium or a ride down the 101. Proper preparation for this event is key.
This is a great opportunity to try out your clothing in the cold, try your gears on the hills, practice nutrition, and pick a point to attack.
Sandwich lunch after the ride will be provided. Hot coffee and tea provided before the ride. Full follow vehicle support/ broom wagon. Fast and slow groups will separate on the final climb.
Cost $60
Pre-registration required for sandwich lunch-
The weather forcast calls for a high of 51 with a 10% chance of showers.
Weather forecast for 1/12/13 : http://www.weather.com/weather/wxdetail8/91905
Bring warm clothing and rain gear (I.e. long sleeves, jacket, rain jacket, neoprene booties, leg & arm warmers, cold weather gloves, and a beanie).
Remember that you alone are responsible for your safety, so use your good judgement, and do not blindly follow others . We will provide some support, but you should always be self- sufficient. All distances are approximate.
